My Son Paul Photographing Sutherland Falls

Revelstoke, Canada

I took several shots off Sutherland Falls but the image with Paul and his orange shirt really stood out. I also liked the sense of scale he provided. How Paul managed to get to where he was with those extremely slick rocks worried me but he made there and back without falling. I guess you never stop worrying as a father regardless of how old your children are.

Perfect exposure on the water, and you're right about your son 'making' the photo.

The long exposure beautifully smooths the water, creating a dreamy flow while the colors remain vivid and natural....
There's an amazing balance between human scale and nature’s grandeur.....the falls feel powerful, yet Paul’s presence makes it relatable.
Stunning capture! V
